So i want to make a floating app which on click would stop location.
here's the MainActivity class
public class MainActivity extends Service {
private WindowManager windowManager;
private ImageView chatHead;
#Override public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
windowManager = (WindowManager) getSystemService(WINDOW_SERVICE);
chatHead = new ImageView(this);
chatHead.setImageResource(R.mipmap.ic_launcher);
final WindowManager.LayoutParams params = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(
WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_PHONE,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE,
PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);
params.gravity = Gravity.TOP | Gravity.LEFT;
params.x = 0;
params.y = 100;
windowManager.addView(chatHead, params);
chatHead.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
private int initialX;
private int initialY;
private float initialTouchX;
private float initialTouchY;
#Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
switch (event.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
initialX = params.x;
initialY = params.y;
initialTouchX = event.getRawX();
initialTouchY = event.getRawY();
return true;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
return true;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
params.x = initialX + (int) (event.getRawX() - initialTouchX);
params.y = initialY + (int) (event.getRawY() - initialTouchY);
windowManager.updateViewLayout(chatHead, params);
return true;
}
return false;
}
});
chatHead.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent=new Intent(MainActivity.this,LocationService.class);
startService(intent);
}
});
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
if (chatHead != null) windowManager.removeView(chatHead);
}
#Nullable
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return null;
}
}
In the manifest i have set the MainActivity as a service. now when i try to run the app it shows an error
Could not identify launch activity: Default Activity not found
What is the issue here? i mean i know there is no activity and i intend to have no activity because it is a service ( a floating app).
What to do
----------------------------------EDIT------------------------------------

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Issue is that you need to start the service from some activity. Service will not be started automatically. To start the service create an activity. Lets say Activity A. Now in its layout lets say there is a button.
on click of button you need to start your service using startService(new Intent(this,MainActivity.class))
Now A should be declared in manifest as launcher activity.
You can not have application without launcher activity!!!
Because it needs a way to start your service..and here it does not have one..
Also you can not use any type of broadcast receiver like BOOT_COMPELETED to start your service because starting from android 3.0 your application should be launched at least once to receive any broadcast like that..
So it would be better if you have one launcher activity although u didn't require it..you can just start your service from that activity and finish it..
And as soon as your service starts you will have your chathead ready!!

Hello I am making a bluetooth connecting android app.
I followed the instruction from developer.android.com
while I am testing my app, I look forward to it works properly, but it didn't.
I tried to get detected BLE devices names, but don't know the reason why it doesn't show me the devices name...
Arduino nano 33 IOT is adverstising bluetooth next to my android phone, and I am trying to detect it and get the Adrduino's BLE device name and address.
here is my MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
//View Contents Elements
public Button btnActivateBluetooth;
public Button btnSearchBluetooth;
public Button btnSendData;
public ListView lvSearchedDevice;
public ListView lvLog;
public TextView tvStatus;
public EditText etData;
//etc values
public ArrayAdapter<String> logAdapter;
private final int REQUEST_ENABLE_BT = 1;
private boolean mScanning = true;
//bluetooth values
public BluetoothAdapter btAdapter;
public BluetoothManager btManager;
private Handler handler;
#SuppressLint("MissingPermission")
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
//View Elements
btnSearchBluetooth = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnSearchBluetooth);
btnSendData = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnSendData);
lvSearchedDevice = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvSearchedDevice);
lvLog = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.log);
tvStatus = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tvStatus);
etData = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etData);
//etc
logAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1);
lvLog.setAdapter(logAdapter);
handler = new Handler();
// Initializes Bluetooth adapter.
btManager = (BluetoothManager)getSystemService(Context.BLUETOOTH_SERVICE);
btAdapter = btManager.getAdapter();
// displays a dialog requesting user permission to enable Bluetooth.
if (btAdapter == null || !btAdapter.isEnabled()) {
Intent enableBtIntent = new Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE);
startActivityForResult(enableBtIntent, REQUEST_ENABLE_BT);
}
btnSearchBluetooth.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
scanLeDevice(true);
}
});
}
//Scan devices
#SuppressLint("MissingPermission")
private void scanLeDevice(final boolean enable){
if(enable){
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#SuppressLint("MissingPermission")
#Override
public void run() {
btAdapter.stopLeScan(leScanCallback);
}
},5000);
btAdapter.startLeScan(leScanCallback);
}
else
{
btAdapter.stopLeScan(leScanCallback);
}
}
//Callback method
private BluetoothAdapter.LeScanCallback leScanCallback = new BluetoothAdapter.LeScanCallback() {
#Override
public void onLeScan(final BluetoothDevice device, int rssi, byte[] scanRecord) {
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#SuppressLint("MissingPermission")
#Override
public void run() {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, device.getName(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
};
}
and this is my Arduino nano 33 IOT's code.
#include <ArduinoBLE.h>
BLEService Toothbrush("00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB");
BLEStringCharacteristic ToothbrushChar("00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB",BLEWrite|BLERead | BLENotify, 10);
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
if(!BLE.begin()){
Serial.println("Starting BLE failed.");
while(1);
}
BLE.setLocalName("HayanToothbrush");
BLE.setAdvertisedService(Toothbrush);
Toothbrush.addCharacteristic(ToothbrushChar);
BLE.addService(Toothbrush);
BLE.advertise();
Serial.println("Bluetooth device active, wating for connections...");
}
void loop() {
BLEDevice central = BLE.central();
if(central) {
Serial.print("Connected to central : ");
Serial.println(central.address());
while(central.connected()){
}
Serial.print("Disconnected from central:");
Serial.println(central.address());
}
}
I add permissions in the Mainfest as below.

</manifest>
But it still doesn't find me scanned device name.
I think it's on LeScanCallBack problem.
When running startLeScan, It seems not running callback method.
in addition, I am running this app on SDK_VERSION_30
and Arduino nano IOT 33 is discoverable If I use the Bluetooth function that my phone has, not my application, it will be displayed in the scan result list.
I want to get scan result on my own app.
but don't know where is the problem.
Permissions must be declared and requested depending on Android version. Main differences are:
Target Android 12 or higher
BLUETOOTH_SCAN
Target Android 11 or lower
ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
See Bluetooth permissions for details.
I try do do some background calculation tasks in an Android application.
My Main class :
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private CalculationReceiver calculationReceiver = new CalculationReceiver();
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
final Context mContext = this;
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
calculationReceiver.doAddition(mContext, 2, 2);
}
});
}
}
My service :
public class CalculationService extends IntentService {
public CalculationService() {
super("Calculation Service");
}
#Override
protected void onHandleIntent(#Nullable Intent intent) {
int nb1 = intent.getIntExtra(NUMBER_1,0);
int nb2 = intent.getIntExtra(NUMBER_2,0);
doAddition(nb1,nb2);
CalculationReceiver.completeWakefulIntent(intent);
}
public void doAddition(int number1, int number2){
int result = number1+number2;
System.out.println("Result : " + result);
}
}
My receiver :
public class CalculationReceiver extends WakefulBroadcastReceiver {
public static final String NUMBER_1 = "NUMBER_1";
public static final String NUMBER_2 = "NUMBER_2";
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Intent service = new Intent(context, CalculationService.class);
int receiverNumber1 = intent.getIntExtra(NUMBER_1,0);
int receiverNumber2 = intent.getIntExtra(NUMBER_2,0);
service.putExtra(NUMBER_1,receiverNumber1);
service.putExtra(NUMBER_2,receiverNumber2);
startWakefulService(context, service);
}
public void doAddition (Context context, int number1, int number2){
Intent intent = new Intent(context, CalculationReceiver.class);
intent.putExtra(NUMBER_1,number1);
intent.putExtra(NUMBER_2,number2);
context.sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
My Manifest :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

The calculations of the application are more complex than these additions, and can take several minutes (in average 15 minutes) to be done.
According to the Google documentation (https://developer.android.com/training/scheduling/wakelock.html), I decided to implement this architecture to make sure that the calculation is done to the end.
The idea is that the user starts his calculation and then waits for the application to give the result. In the meantime, he can launch other apps or lock his phone, the calculation must not stop.
This approach seems to work.
What bothers me here is the call to service in the receiver:
context.sendBroadcast (intent);
Is there a more "clean" way to start the service?
What strikes me is that it does not seem very "clean", especially the passage of several times the same parameter (number1 and number2)
Thanks
According to the Google documentation (https://developer.android.com/training/scheduling/wakelock.html), I decided to implement this architecture to make sure that the calculation is done to the end.
That is not how the documentation shows using WakefulBroadcastReceiver. Plus, WakefulBroadcastReceiver was deprecated in version 26.0.0 of the support libraries.
The idea is that the user starts his calculation and then waits for the application to give the result.
My interpretation of this is that the user is requesting, through your activity's UI, to start the calculation. This means that at this point in time, the screen is on and you have an activity in the foreground.
Is there a more "clean" way to start the service?
Call startService().
Step #1: Delete your use of the deprecated WakefulBroadcastReceiver
Step #2: Have your activity call startService() to start the service
Step #3: Have your service acquire a partial WakeLock through the PowerManager system service, in the service's onCreate() method
Step #4: Have your service release that WakeLock in the service's onDestroy() method
Step #5: Modify the service to be a foreground service, calling startForeground() in onCreate() with a suitable Notification to allow the user to control the behavior of the service
Note that:
If you skip Step #5, your service will stop running after ~1 minute on Android 8.0+.
This will still not work on Android 6.0+ if the device enters into Doze mode. That should not happen for ~1 hour, but you need to make sure that your calculations are done by then.
Consider offloading the calculation work to a server, rather than burning up the user's CPU for an extended period of time (through your calculation work plus the wakelock)
It was in this way that I resolved it, following the advice of #CommonsWare
Main Activity :
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
final Context mContext = this;
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent service = new Intent(mContext, CalculationService.class);
service.putExtra(NUMBER_1,2);
service.putExtra(NUMBER_2,2);
startService(service);
}
});
}
}
Calculation Service :
public class CalculationService extends IntentService {
public static final String NUMBER_1 = "NUMBER_1";
public static final String NUMBER_2 = "NUMBER_2";
private static final int FOREGROUND_ID = 42;
PowerManager.WakeLock wakeLock;
public CalculationService() {
super("Calculation Service");
}
#Override
protected void onHandleIntent(#Nullable Intent intent) {
int nb1 = intent.getIntExtra(NUMBER_1,0);
int nb2 = intent.getIntExtra(NUMBER_2,0);
doAddition(nb1,nb2);
}
public void doAddition(int number1, int number2){
int result = number1+number2;
System.out.println("Result : " + result);
}
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
PowerManager powerManager = (PowerManager) getSystemService(POWER_SERVICE);
wakeLock = powerManager.newWakeLock(PowerManager.PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK,
"CalculationServiceWakelockTag");
wakeLock.acquire();
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0,
notificationIntent, 0);
Notification notification = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
.setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.ic_launcher)
.setContentTitle("Calculation App")
.setContentText("Calculation in progress")
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent).build();
startForeground(FOREGROUND_ID, notification);
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
wakeLock.release();
}
}
This is working great :)
But can I call
startForegroundService(service)
instead of
startService(service);
or not ? And why ?
I have implemented a code that opens an app when we shake our device. As far as i kept all my code into the MainActivity and without any background service, it all went well. But its not working when i tried to add a background service as i want it keep working without going into an app every time. So can anybody suggest me where am i doing wrong.Thanks!

In GitHub Android Examples there is a complete app. It uses the command pattern like your code for checking the sensor values and AlarmManager.
In this question on SO is an example using the SensorEventListener interface.
The Android developer site says to use IntentService on this page.
You can also read what is the difference between Service and IntentService in this question on SO.
These links may also help you:

My app plays audio, and so I want to mute my app's audio when the user gets a call. That way the music won't be playing over the users call. I have used phoneStateListener , but for some reason the methods in it aren't executing-I know because the logs aren't displaying:
PhoneStateListener phoneStateListener = new PhoneStateListener() {
#Override
public void onCallStateChanged(int state, String incomingNumber) {
if (state == TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_RINGING) {
//Incoming call: Pause music
TwentySeconds.stopTimer(); //Stop service which mutes app
Intent i = new Intent(BaseActivity.this, Main_Menu.class);
startActivity(i);
Toast.makeText(BaseActivity.this, "INCOMING CALL", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Log.v(TAG, "INCOMING CALL");
} else if (state == TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE) {
//Not in call: Play music
Log.v(TAG, "NOT IN A CALL");
} else if (state == TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK) {
//A call is dialing, active or on hold
TwentySeconds.stopTimer(); //Stop service which mutes app
Intent i = new Intent(BaseActivity.this, Main_Menu.class);
startActivity(i);
Log.v(TAG, "CALL IS ACTIVE!");
Toast.makeText(BaseActivity.this, "DIALING", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
};
I have looked all over the web to find out how to do this--One way is I found is to use the intent, but that requires extending BroadcastReceiver, and I can't extend two things. So, for now, the phoneStateListener is doing absolutely nothing. I really appreciate all of your help in fixing my PhoneStateListener.
Thanks,
Rich
Did you forget to quote the TelephonyManager?
TelephonyManager manager = this.getSystemService(TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
Try this:
public class PhoneCallStateActivity extends Activity {
TelephonyManager manager;
#override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
manager = (TelephonyManager) this.getSystemService(TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
manager.listen(new MyPhoneStateListener(), PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CALL_STATE);
}
class MyPhoneStateListener extends PhoneStateListener{
#override
public void onCallStateChanged(int state, String incomingNumber) {
switch(state) {
case TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE:
//TODO:
break;
case TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_RINGING:
//TODOļ¼
break;
case TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK:
//TODO:
break;
default:
break;
}
}
super.onCallStateChanged(state, incomingNumber);
}
}
I looked at your code,it is good. But i am just thinking about your manifest file, did you given enough permissions to read phone state. Have a look at my manifest file (which is working):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

It is better to access / use this "Custom Phone State Listener" class with the TelephonyManager like as follows:
import android.telephony.PhoneStateListener;
import android.telephony.TelephonyManager;
public class PhoneStateListenerActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
TelephonyManager tManager;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
tManager = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
tManager.listen(new CustomPhoneStateListener(this),
PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CALL_STATE
| PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CELL_INFO // Requires API 17
| PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CELL_LOCATION
| PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_DATA_ACTIVITY
| PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_DATA_CONNECTION_STATE
| PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_SERVICE_STATE
| PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_SIGNAL_STRENGTHS
| PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CALL_FORWARDING_INDICATOR
| PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_MESSAGE_WAITING_INDICATOR);
}
}
Here we are setting the tManager.listen method a new object for CustomPhoneStateListener and in the events parameter a bitwise-OR combination of Android PhoneStateListener LISTEN_ flags is passed.
You can set your own custom phone state listener, (I am just adding mine here) :
public class CustomPhoneStateListener extends PhoneStateListener {
public CustomPhoneStateListener(Context context) {
mContext = context;
}
#Override
public void onCallStateChanged(int state, String incomingNumber) {
super.onCallStateChanged(state, incomingNumber);
switch (state) {
case TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE:
Log.i(LOG_TAG, "onCallStateChanged: CALL_STATE_IDLE");
break;
case TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_RINGING:
Log.i(LOG_TAG, "onCallStateChanged: CALL_STATE_RINGING");
break;
case TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK:
Log.i(LOG_TAG, "onCallStateChanged: CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK");
break;
default:
Log.i(LOG_TAG, "UNKNOWN_STATE: " + state);
break;
}
}
I'm trying to acquire accelerometer data using an Android Wear app on a smartwatch (Samsung Gear Live). To acquire that data I use a service which listens to three components:
a SensorEventListener, where the onSensorChanged method triggers a SensorEventLoggerTask that stores the accelerometer data with timestamps in a file on the smartwatch
a System intent that listens to the battery
an Intent that listens button clicks on an activity. The activity is used to annotate the data, so I have an idea at what timestamp an (person)activity (running, eating, sleeping,...) was started:
This works fine and I can sample the data every (more or less) 5-6 ms. However this only works when the smartwatch is connected through adb or when the activity is active (to press a button). From the moment it is not connected anymore, there are gaps in the data. With gaps I mean that the time between two timestamps of accelerometer values is much larger than the 5-6 ms. Going to seconds... The gaps appear irregular. But when the activity becomes active (to press a button) or I connect the smartwatch to the adb, the values are gathered. It appears that the service is paused/sleeps/shut down, when the smartwatch is not active.
Below I post the code. The project consists of two classes WearableActivity and WearableService. Furthermore, I also show the Manifest. Allthough this is only prototyping code, any help in resolving the data gaps or suggestions to the code, would be greatly appreciated.
WearableActivity.java
public class WearableActivity extends Activity {
//Set strings and widgets
private static final String TAG = "WearableActivity";
private TextView mTextView;
private Button[] buttons;
private String[] strings;
#Override
